    Dragging Ruler Guides disappear at a certain point

    Working in v7.5 at a certain point on my 24 inch iMac screen the ruler guide dragged down from the ruler at the top of the screen disappears unless the page is shown at a larger size. This has not happened on any previous computers or versions of QuarkXpress. Is this a new thing? Thanks. G

     I believe it's a display bug. QuarkXPress documents can only be expanded to a certain size and I think this goes along with that. When XPress was originally designed there weren't any 24 inch monitors. Smile

     Well, actually now that it's come up, these two threads suggest that I am wrong:

    Here and here.

    The guides issue at certain percentages still suggests to me though that it's a display issue. Can you change resolution and still have the guides dissapear at those percentages?

    AHA. Check here:

    Migman probably has the answer. (It's the post at the bottom)!

    Thanks again - we need to look at this in a quiet moment, esp. Migman's contribution. G
